The t1e bass is sooooooo addictive!

Combine that with the fact that the mids are very present and jump out, and giving a sense of imaging that is seldom heard, especially with guitars, pianos, and multiple simultaneous vocals, then add a fatigue free treble and very comfortable fit, these are a hall of famer. It's like a sibilant free GR07BE for $35 bucks, and one of the only iems I can pop in my ears and enjoy for hours without ever having to adjust the tips or take them out of my ears (ymmv). There is no genre of music that these play poorl. The bass is such high quality it doesn't ruin the rest of the sound spectrum, and actually compliments it.

Hey guys sorry for the noob question, I haven't been participated here since I was trying to decide on a headphone/amp combo way back. I'm looking for some in ears around the $50 range and I really can't decide. I was thinking of jumping on the Xiaomi Piston/Zero Audio Tenore/Basso train but other in ears have caught my attention, especially the TTPOD T1-E. I'm looking for something fairly balanced sounding/a bit more to the bassy side but at the top of my list along with those things are comfort (I haven't been able to find a comfy pair of in ears which has made me stay away from them) and isolation. I need something good at isolating for the bus which is loud and annoying but something where people can't hear what I'm listening to. I was originally thinking of going for something like the Shure SE215 or the Hifiman RE-400 but it seems there are good options at half the price, even the Vsonic VSD3S has a removable cable at half the price.
 
I've just been doing a ton of reading and it seems like it's never going to end without asking.

Guess what I recommend?

No don't say it, I've read almost all your posts in the TTPOD thread

I am really attracted to the TTPOD T1-E, the clear one sort of looks like the Shure SE215 which I like. I'm just questioning the isolation. Are these legit too? (http://penonaudio.com/Xiaomi-Piston-black?search=Xiaomi). I could always just bundle them with my choice from Penon.

I've also creeped your profile and read your list of IEMs. Guess what? Most of the ones I mentioned are on there. Only joking! It seems like you hold them in pretty high regard though especially to the ones I mentioned. I just can't decide, there are so many in that range on Penonaudio. Worth it to expand my budget to a Havi B3 or re-400/se215 range? I'm coming from nothing in the in ear land and only DT 770's in the headphone land so I don't need too much.
